What is here

The agency shortlist names ten performance marketing agencies that D2C founders in India ask about most, from dentsu's iProspect and Publicis' Performics to independents in Mumbai, Chennai, Gurugram and Surat, with where each is based and the kind of brand each suits.

The agency guide is the checklist we would use ourselves: who runs the account every day, who makes the ads, what gets reported and how often, who owns the ad account and the data, and the red flags that should end a pitch.

The Surat page is for brands near our Piplod office that would rather meet the team in person.

Every guide is written by the team that runs Meta and Google Ads and makes ads videos for D2C brands every day, and is reviewed each quarter.
